Why Government Shouldn't be Involved in Our Healthcare

Simple, those who truly cannot afford healthcare should have the option to join a conditional government funded insurance pool. Those who can meet physical requirements should volunteer their time to offset costs.
Get rid of the Departments of Housing and Urban Development, Commerce, Energy, and the Department of Education, there is no reason we can't keep eduction at the state level. Cut the EPA in half or better yet do away with it entirely and leave that to the individual states.

A serious crack down on government waste and fraud would pay for millions of Americans healthcare in and of itself.

That's all I can thing of in five minutes, but it's a hell of a start.
What about military waste or corporate welfare? I am seeing your drastic measures creating new and improved issues

i sardonically called him a "nigga" to highlight the fact that he has previously tried to demean other members here by calling them by that same racial slur.

but he's totally not racist.
And it's totally okay for you to call him that and not be labeled racist because you explained why. Yup, perfect logic.

See people, how easy it is to be a not racist? Just explain why you call someone racist names after calling them such, and it makes it okay!

More than okay, its UB approved!

That’s less than one-tenth of one-percent of total Medicare expenditures, and the report says CMS “has safeguards to prevent and recover” those payments.
The OIG offered a handful of recommendations, such as taking action against providers and suppliers that had high numbers of claims with service dates after a beneficiary’s death, as a way to minimize further inappropriate payments
.

Dude, do you know how petty and desperate you sound whining about a typo?
You got bitch slapped on some threads by a few guys, take it like a man.
Bro. Umad. I get it. You have a very hard time taking it on the chin. But you need to swallow. Your pride.

Are you trying to hide something? Something you're not telling us?

using slurs sardonically to specifically troll the person who used them non-sardonically is fine.

hell, so is using slurs as bait to enrage via trolling attempts. ever see me get mad about harrekin and his "spear chuck" remarks? it's because he PMed me to explain what he was doing, and it makes perfect sense given his body of work here.

something tells me you weren't being so sarcastic when you said something to the effect of "multiculturalism works best when there is an ocean between the cultures".

that upsets me greatly because i do not care to make a transpacific voyage just to pick up my banh mi.

Like I said, UB approved.


And you don't think for a moment that the multiculturalism comment wasn't bait? Nah, couldn't be. Only UB can make sardonic comments.

kynes is a staunch defender of the john birch society, and that was his defense at the time. it seemed pretty sincere, and he has refused to back down from it.

that's a reading compensation think!

this thread is beenthere's secret manifesto against capitalism.

apparently, the california aqueduct, which most would say is a government thing, is actually a 100% capitalist thing.

thus, anything government does, good or bad, is a capitalist thing.

when he starts a thread about why the government should not be involved in health care, he really means that 100% capitalists should not be in health care.

i agree with him on that.

Because so many doctors are willing to trade their private practices in for the opportunity for their state to tell them how to be a doctor, moreso than they already do with regulations within their private practice?

Yeah, I can see the doctors for miles lining up for that.

Maybe someday the government will try and take over my line of work, and I can trade my private practice in for an opportunity to work for the state. Gee, I can't wait.

Many European nations have a similar system and better health statistics. Americans tend to believe that we are #1 in science, medicine, and education but actually we are unhealthy, overweight, poorly educated by comparison. Maybe that will be an incentive....MORE PATIENTS?

I think lifestyle contributes more to that than the actual health care system does.

Otherwise, why would so many people require the service of health care in the first place?

So what I'm getting out of this is, Americans are dumb, overweight and lazy, only more money from tax payers to implement Obamacare will get them up and off their fat lazy asses so they can join a gym, go back to school and eat healthy foods!

Only a dumb fucking liberal could come up with something this totally absurd.

You take facts well. They are what are. "By comparison" is saying what you are not getting.....simply that there are other, more advanced nations than we assume we are. Eating healthier, exercising, and information will reduce the cost of Obamacare it seems. Less coronaries, strokes, diabetes, and cancer for example. Doctors under Obamacare may have more to work with in the US. Most people are dumb, most Americans are overweight, and lazy is calling someone a "dumb fucking liberal" rather than actually have a discourse. I am not impressed by your glib solutions....they wouldn't work.

So now you identify yourself as a dumb fucking liberal ?
Talk about confusing :?
